Thamks RobYou said some toy/chevy rims fit.How do you know which? Is there alot of trial/error involved in tire/wheel/vehicle fitment? if so why has no one compiled this data?


Well, I said some because as with most things, there is no absolute truth. Chevy used mostly the 6 on 5.5 pattern, but some of the newer vehicles more than likely imploy metric patterns and would not fit.

First and formost, the rim you choose will need to be a 6-lug on 5.5" pattern. Like Jim mentioned, you will need hub opening in two of the rims to accomodiate the your hublocks. rims off a 2wd may not have this, and some Chevy's use an opening that isn't large enough to accomodiate the isuzu hub. Beyond that, its a matter of choosing the appropriate width and offset so that you can clear the tire around the fender and suspension components.

Not one has compiled a list of this because the information is way to vast and individual setups differ. No auto manufactor used a single size rim. Even within particular model years, several rim configurations could exist. A rim size that allows me to run a particular 33" tire on my Isuzu may cause the next guy too much rubbing to even drive it on the street, etc...
